More About Guilt

I once again asked to learn more about guilt, and this is what I received from Spirit.

Spirit: As said earlier, the idea of guilt is a mainstay of the ego. I know that the ego is not real, but you do not. Still, there is a place in your mind where Light and peace prevail, and knowledge is there.

The belief in separation (which runs this world) is the root problem. All the while that you believe that you are apart from God and distinct from your brothers, you will experience guilt on many levels. When you notice any thought that denies your holiness, it is most helpful to take that thought to H.S. Go within with your eternal Guide and look at what underlies the thought.
Your use of the world would keep you imprisoned, H.S.‘s use of the world and all your ideas, will set you free. See every despairing thought as the gift that takes you closer to Home.

With H.S. you learn that many thoughts come from one root belief. And as you recognize the stems, you will use less “time” to correct the perceived error. It will take you less time to realize that the stem comes from the same belief, and so let it go. The ego wants to keep you as it’s ally, but you are learning there are no benefits to keeping the ego as “friend.” It does not save you from guilt, but merely attempts to mask it and let you acquire more.

Then this morning I was given this message:
The truth about you is whole without contradiction of any kind. Your wholeness is your holiness. Nothing can change the truth in you—-for you remain as Love created you. Truth is true.
In truth that are no comparisons, no differences, so there is nothing to judge. You cannot judge between what is all the same. You are willing now to see that all in the dream is the same. All in the dream is illusion. All in the dream is what you have put there, to make separation seem real.  Every single thing in your perception is a reflection of the mind in pain, under chains of guilt. You do not need to hold onto this one second longer!!

You are free NOW. You are Whole NOW. The illusion of guilt, separation, the world, is a fabrication like that of a magic show. None of it is real. None of it has power on its own. Remember to question all that you think is real.
Be glad that you dream a dream….that this world is not real. Be glad that you did not make your self…that the body is not real. Be glad that the truth is true, and the false can never be made real.

Attraction to Guilt

Yesterday morning I posed a question to Spirit, and share the response that I received.
I trust that you will find some useful thought with your waking, as we go Home together.
Thanks for reading!

Here I am Father—- please tell me about the attraction to guilt.

Since the ego is the belief in separation, this belief brings with it fear and guilt. The only cause of guilt is the belief in something that never happened. The belief that you could be something other (different) from Love brings guilt. The ego survival depends on guilt. If you did not believe in guilt, there would be no thought of separation and vice versa; if you did not believe in separation there would be no guilt.

The seeming attraction to guilt, comes from the ego perspective. It wants guilt because that is the illusion that holds it together, seeming to give it reality. Yet to remove faith in either is the undoing of both. This tiny fragment of thought does not want you to learn/remember that there is no thing that causes guilt. Yet you have total domain over your dream, and what you ask for you receive. If you truly want freedom, then forgive yourself for the dream you made. Forgive the images, thoughts, beliefs that you dream. In forgiving what is unreal, what never happened, you welcome the truth. You open your mind and accept the light that shines within. You choose only the Light of Love as what is yours. You let go of childish games and meaningless toys.

Yet as long as you place value on the images in your dream, so you keep your self from Heaven and awareness of Love. When you accept Guidance from your True Self, Holy Spirit, you are willing to lay aside the meaningless toys and empty images. You are willing to stop being the author of your world, your story, your self.
The things that seem to attract you in the dream are simply distractions to inhibit your waking. When you prefer your story over the truth, you will not receive the truth, for you have chosen your story. But you can always choose again. There is no shame in changing your mind about what you want.

Everything in your dream is simply a back drop, like that on a stage or movie. Minds that perceive the world as tragic, chaotic, barbaric and disastrous, only mistake the backdrop for reality. Yet given to H.S. to interpret the mind learns that there is only good. With H.S. the perception of good is always available no matter what is in the backdrop.

Let Me Be Still

In the latter half of Sept. I received these thoughts from Holy Spirit:

“I will be still and listen to the Truth.”

Any time that I experience a ‘woe is me’ feeling or decide to get sucked into the ego depression—-that is when (Now) I need ask for help from Spirit. I can look with Spirit and follow the beliefs (down the line) to the one belief that made the whole stack. I can ask Spirit to heal that belief Now and let it be gone.

If I try to do this looking on my own, I will be wrong, for my interpretation is based on a non-existent past.

Spirit works with healing my mind—-which may or may not appear in the physical world. Yet, as my mind is healed of separation thoughts, the world I think I see, will change accordingly. My projection will change; I will begin to recognize what is true and cease trying to make the false true. I will stop projecting my fear and guilt.
The illusory is false, always.
Love is real. Truth is true.

“God is with me—-I cannot be deceived.”
